The capitol building stood in Harazod, which served as the capital city for the realm of Gerrard V. During 0 BBY, local insurgents under the leadership of General Camon Udeon fell back to the capitol building. This occurred after their endeavor to seize and maintain control of Harazod met resistance from Imperial troops, who were commanded by Admiral Jion Trynn. Trynn presented Udeon with surrender conditions; however, the rebel rejected them, leading Trynn to initiate a bombardment of Harazod's city center.
